Mommy Thought for the Day

I'm playing catch up.

Things have been so crazy 'round here since Sticky #4 arrived that I haven't made a post since July 2010!! I still need to post a picture of the little cutie. He is already 10 months old, a carbon copy of Little Sticky, and is desperately trying to live up to his Sticky siblings.

I'm adding the post to our Facebook page if you care to keep up! :-)

Living With Sticky

I take my mommy job (not too) seriously. I am quite often stressed out, rarely the most organized, routinely running late, very often forgetful, but always lots of fun.

I don't do sushi or soy. I would never dream of home-schooling. My coupons are almost always expired. I like crafty, but not fancy. I like a good bargain, but don't consider myself thrify. (You will never catch me rinsing out Ziploc bags to save a buck). I do recycle, but don't consider myself totally green.

So WHY would you visit this site? For a laugh. That's what I do. I write funny stuff about my kids. And occasionally about me and my husband. Sometimes I'll throw in something sweet or sentimental, and every now and then I'll toss in a tip or two.

So save me to your favorites or Fan me on Facebook, and the next time you're having a bad day, come back for a little picker upper.

Introducing the Stickies

_____________________

A sweet and imaginative 6 year old. This little guy has a heart of gold. He loves to pretend play and make up creative stories. He's my good eater and will actually ask for an apple and even broccoli. Don't dub him a saint just yet. Some of those stories he likes to create are fictitious accounts of how certain events unfold around this house. (Like how a puddle of orange juice ended up on the floor).

This big little guy is 5 going on 15. He loves to entertain a crowd and finds humor in everything (even his own falls and spills.) One day he will be on stage as a singer, actor, comedian, or motivational speaker. (My brother claims he is a Chris Farley double.) Known as Mr. Happy to many, he loves to push his older brother's buttons. Oh yeah, and he absolutely ADORES his baby sister and baby brother.

Full of smiles, giggles, and eye batting, this little 3 year old already knows how to get her way. She is the very definition of a social butterfly and loves to be around anyone and everyone. She is also a people pleaser and loves to help Mommy around the house (unlike her older brothers!)

Living With Sticky's Fan Box

Favorite Preschooler Quote

Big and Little had made a landing pad of pillows for jumping off the sofa. Little kept tossing the pillows in a way that frustrated Big, who responded with,

"I just can't work like this anymore."

Parenting Tip

Preschoolers have the need to be in charge.

If I set out specific clothes for the kids in the morning, I get push backs and "I don't wanna wear that!"

If I set out two outfits and give them a choice, they seldom put up a fight.

Rarely will I go through all the trouble of actually setting out two full outfits, it's usually as simple as "Do you want to wear the Mario shirt or Batman."

Changes Coming

I am still in the process of adding Tabs to my site. If all goes as plans, the tabs will include parenting tips, time-saving tips, money saving tips, favorite products and other fun things. I am self schooling in blogger html code, so be patient with me!
